It’s a rather weird feeling adjusting to life after lockdown. We have two of our daughters back to school and one at home still. Clubs aren’t on, there’s no real need to be anywhere and of course, there’s social distancing to navigate our way around. At the weekend we were invited to come along to Godstone Farm‘s reopening. It was …

Somehow my favourite photos of my daughters have included animals this month. I love it! June has been an odd month of readjusting to whatever this new normal is right now. We have two of our girls back at school and the family dynamic seems a little broken. It’s been a good month and I am positive. Freya Freya started …

I haven’t had the chance to write about the fact Freya has now returned to school. We did film a video though and Freya did a fantastic job at describing her experiences of being back to school.  Something we do every year is go strawberry picking at a local Pick Your Own at Stonepitts Farm. I was a bit sad …

I am trying my very best to document our lives during this uncertain time. All of these moments will be part of our history and things we will talk about for centuries to come. Easter Sunday was very different to how we usually spend it. We usually go to church in the morning to celebrate the rising of Christ, that’s …

Those early weeks of being isolated was a weird time. I enjoyed a slower-paced life, yet felt so much sadness about the life we used to have. It was like grieving for a loss.  We managed to get into the swing of lockdown life and here are the pictures from our third week of isolation.  

It’s so much fun looking back on the photos from the early weeks of lockdown. It already seems like such a long time ago yet like it only happened yesterday. The second week of lockdown for us was all about trying to get into a routine of virtual home learning and surviving being stuck in our home. Here are the …

Firstly, it’s the 29th of February!! It’s a leap year woohoo. Anyway… I have felt like February has been a long month. The weather has been pretty rubbish and there’s been a half-term in the middle too. I mean, who’s idea was it to have a school holiday when the weather is yuck and nobody wants to spend any length …

Welcome back to another year of the Siblings post. This project originated from Lucy at Dear Beautiful many years ago when blog linkys were a thing and I’m so grateful she started it. It’s a wonderful way to look back on each month. January is a long month. There’s lots of talk about it feeling a bit heavy on the …

I’m still playing catch up from all of the adventures we had during the summer holidays. It seemed to zoom past. Before I knew it I was waving goodbye to a Year 5 and a Year 1 at school. As you go up through school things get harder, obviously, and this year is quite important for P1. Things up the …

What does summer time mean to you? For my little tribe it means longer days, ice creams, sand, shorts and sandals (Although Hubby is still refusing to embrace man sandals or flip flops so his feet are so pale!)! We adore summer here. Last year The Beach at Bluewater arrived for summer and we had a great time so I was thrilled …

If you’re considering taking your family to London for a short stay, maybe to see a show, take in the sites or you fancy a couple of days exploring the capital then it’s easy for costs to add up. With some pre-planning and savvy online searching there are plenty of deals available to help you keep the costs down, meaning …

Since moving home I have definitely become a home body. We used to spend a lot of time out of our old house, getting away from the crowded environment, but our new home is different. I love being here much more than freezing my butt off going on adventures. But at the same time I am longing for our adventures. …

I am so sorry that it has taken me this long to get this last day of our trip to Germany up on my blog. Christmas, New Year and back to school completely took over. To give yourself a mind refresh, please read my first day and second day of our stay at Tropical Islands Resort. Tropical Islands Resort is …

Since starting my blog back in 2013, I have found a love for travel. I’m really enjoying exploring not just the UK but venturing abroad too. I’ve decided to make a bucket list for all the places I’d love to visit, not just in 2018 but through my life too. With Kids: 1) Canada Hubby’s Auntie lives in Canada. I’ve …

I don’t think the weather has been too kind on us this “summer” and the school holidays were pretty lame weren’t they with regards to the good old British weather. Autumn has suddenly hit and it is freezing cold and raining the majority of the time. Thankfully I was contacted to see if I wanted to review some Dry Kids …
